BCG - I had an interview what will happen if one case went really well the other one not so much... does it have to be unanimous? What are my chances of going to the 2nd round?

Low but not zero. Depends on power Dynamics and personalities of your two interviewers to be honest. If the senior or more assertive person liked you more you've got a better shot. We call them split reads. We debate it. Very subjective. Also depends on the ingoing thoughts of campus recruiting whether we'll give the benefit of the doubt.

Not enough info to answer and probing more would reveal too much about the process. So-called “split reads” usually warrant the most vigorous discussion in debriefs

It’s not that simple. Interviews and therefore the evaluation are not purely dependent on case performance.

I was invited back for a second round and I think I might’ve been a “split read” that BCG1 is referring to, I say that because my partner interview went well but my case bombed. All the best and hope you make it!

Pretty low odds. But if you’re a woman or a diversity candidate you’ll likely get a another shot.
